| Re: Help autistic son
OP I just wanted to say welcome, and I am sorry that you have going through this situation and are feeling alone. I have a son who has autism and it has been very challenging for me to work with the school system. Anyways, have you talked to the principal about the situation? Does your child have medical documentation of having autism?
Something that might be looking into is getting your child into counseling for children. In my experience, the counselors had more knowledge of programs that were available for my son.
If your child does not have documentation you might still be able to get an IEP depending on how old the child is. Another option that might be available iis what is called a 504. My son has a current IEP and the school provides him with noise reducing earphones, he has special office passes when he gets overwhelmed, he can go to the special education class sometimes to take a break.
The first week of school is very challenging for my son because of all of the changes that he is getting used to. Please feel free to PM me if you have any other questions.
If I can help in any other way please feel free to PM me.
